For anyone who visits the Alberta Watson Message Board on occasion...
You should probably be aware that the board will be shutting down on October 1. (Nothing bad, just a decision that it was a good time to end on a high note.)
You can read the announcement here (and say goodbye if you like):

Is this thing on? *Taps mike*
Like whoa, I've been MIA for eons here!! It's been a weird and busy year (although not a bad one), and as a result I found my fannish energy level very low for a while. Too many other mental distractions, I think! But I think my appetite for fandom is returning, so I hope to be here more often. (Or on DW? Is everyone moving there ( Read more... ) -
A Madeline/Operations LFN vid!
There's quite a nice community of Madeline/Operations vidders over on Youtube - I've been enjoying their work for a while now. But I just came across one vid by Maria Purt that she says was inspired by one of my fics, Return From the Land of Shadows. The vid is great, and I am thrilled that one of my ideas helped inspire her to create something ( Read more... ) -
Happy New Year!
Happy new year everyone! I'm off to buy some wine for a New Years Eve party where they promise to serve enchiladas with homemade mole sauce flown up all the way from Mexico City. Seeing as mole is possibly my favorite food ever, this should be an auspicious start to 2011.
I hope you all have a wonderful celebration! -

I am amused
Dear Justin Bieber fans on Twitter:
The fact that I have "JB" in my username does not actually mean that I am either: (1) Justin Bieber himself; or (2) any sort of Justin Bieber fan. So why do so many of you keep following me ( Read more... ) -
Popping up briefly
I've been so swamped lately, I've barely had enough time to sleep, much less keep up with online reading/posting. (I'm also several days late posting a story for a fic challenge I signed up for...argh!) But I gather LJ has done something upsetting again? Oh, quelle surprise ( Read more... ) -
And the hurricane has landed
I was in downtown Oakland when we got the two-hour jury verdict warning, and so there was plenty of time to clear out and head home. BART was massively crowded with all the people getting out of Dodge. As for the verdict itself...involuntary manslaughter, the mildest option available short of complete acquittal. Not surprisingly, people are ( Read more... )
